Al Terrazzo

Optima! That’s what I said (on recommendation from an Italian friend) once I ate here. However, it didn’t seem to impress anyone.
I visited this lovely restaurant on my last night in Italy. I was promised an amazing view of Lake Como and amazing Italian food. I was not disappointed by that promise. We went out onto the terrace and enjoyed Prosecco with Prosciutto wrapped breadsticks while taking in the magnificent vista. Mountains, lake, boats… just beautiful. We took it all in. Oh, yes, all of it, before heading indoors for dinner due to the impending rain.
Many companies take guests to dine here, so the restaurant offers menus in both Italian and in English. The employees speak good English, as well.
We started dinner with a nice chilled white wine. I don’t remember what it was, but it was magnificent! Dinner for me consisted of risotto with martini, tuna, and arugala. It was the best risotto I’ve ever had, hands down! My friend had the gnocchi with ham and quite enjoyed it.
We did not order another main dish after this, because what we had was very filling. Instead, we went straight for dessert accompanied by a flute of dessert wine! Don’t mind us! We all chose different desserts. I had the warm pear tarte and highly recommend it. Others ordered the chocolate, sorbet, crème brûlée, and yogurt parfait. No complaints from anyone! Everything was absolutely delicious! To our surprise, this was followed up by crème and berry shooters and an assortment of mini cookies.
Come here and have your own amazing experience. You won’t regret it!
